Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game /

I don\'t know if it can be configured through the GUI, but there are proxy settings in updaterconfig.xml. The game itself might not work with a proxy, but I don\'t know. Can you play any other games with this proxy?

That sound like a proxy to me. I don\'t know how to use the updater with a proxy, but knowing whether it is a proxy or not will help solve the problem. (you need to tell you program to use a proxy if you need one)

The Linux/Unix updater only updates the art. It is good to run it, but it will not update your game version. You need to download a new binary installer or do a cvs update. If this fails you can always go to laanx.fragnetics.com and grab the netprotocol version and tweak your source code so that it thinks it is the new version. This might cause lots of weird stuff, but it has worked semiOK for me before.
I wouldn\'t recomend mac users to use the updater as it has trashed my PS install before.

The Linux updater does not update the game binaries, and will not fix this error message. The Macintosh updater didn\'t work last time i tried it, and when I did manage to get it to work, it broke my game.

Get ZoneAlarm or something and don\'t allow iexplore or explorer to access the internet. This might cause some problems though... Maybe just set all the security options in IE to their highest and then avoid using it.

Safe P2P program lists is actually a great way to prevent spyware. Some of them come bloated full of spyware and backdoors. Only download BitTorrent and BitTornado for BitTorrent. If there is a lite version of some P2P app, only use the lite one.

Using IE at any age is terrible. You should have it removed(or at least dissabled with a firewall) from your PC IMMEDIATLY to avoid being attacked by some virus your brother picks up. Microsoft should be sued into oblivion for installing that backdoor on everybodies PC(it is almost a law that all PCs come with Windows installed. Something about stopping piracy).

what site? If you are on Windows, then go to http://www.hydrairc.com/index.php?page=downloads and click on HydraIRC.exe. Install it and then connect to Freenode.net(usualy irc.freenode.net, but any server labeled freenode will get you to the same system. Join #planeshift.
If you are on a Mac, http://colloquy.info/downloads.html and click on a download link. Install it, run it, and connect to irc.freenode.net and then join #planeshift(the file menu at the top of the screen).

It\'s an IRC room, not a website. If you are on Windows, then try HydraIRC(I\'ve heard that it is good, but have never used it myself). If you are on a Mac, then try out Colloquy. Linux has lots of them, like Gaim, Kopete, etc. There are lots of people in there most of the time, and somebody should be able to help you.

have you tried recently? I don\'t seen any indication of the server being down anywhere. If you are still having problems connecting, try the IRC channel #planeshift on irc.freenode.net.

If you are trying to do the stuff with the IP address that was mentioned in the beginning of this thread, then there is no need to edit the file. The server is up and running on the normal domain name.
You want to open the existing file and edit it, not create a new file with that stuff in it and overwrite the existing one.
